Magic: The Gathering Arena (aka MTG Arena) has a pretty decent player base across Android, iOS, and Microsoft Windows.

However, players have been facing some issues with MTG Arena lately. So, let’s take a look at these issues one at a time:

As per multiple reports, players are getting the ‘Unable to login’ message after launching MTG Arena.

The issue appears to be widespread but Wizards of the Coast has not acknowledged the same on a wider scale.

However, those who are getting the ‘Unable to login’ message are being advised to raise a ticket regarding the problem.

Battlefield shaking more than intended

Multiple players are reporting about the issue where the intensity of the battlefield shake effect is more than intended.

This is further making it hard to play MTG Arena as the said shake effect intensity quite high even when it is being set to low.

However, Wizards of the Coast support has acknowledged the said issue and are working to fix it soon.
